His Dagger

TTOS version of the Your Dagger dialogue from ISAT.

Loop: (...)

Siffrin: Hello, starlight!

Siffrin: Say, I've noticed you like to use these "tears" to loop back, eh?

"Yeah, I guess"

"No, I run into them on accident..."

(Siffrin barely manages to hold his snicker...)

Siffrin: Hm.....

Siffrin: But isnt it sad? To run back to a tear each time you just want to loop? Don't you want to cry about it?

(Does he always have to joke about everything?)

Siffrin: Of course I do, starlight! You look so grumpy all the time, just wanted to cheer you up, teehee~

Siffrin: Yeah, you don't like it either. But it is the way. Unless you want to lose to a sadness instead, but we know which one is worse, right, starlight? No other convenient way to die in the house as far as i know...

(...)

(It is kinda sad, though. The dreams you get don't help...)

Loop: (Do you really have no other choice?...)

".... Wait, what do you mean 'you don't like it either'?"

"You have a dagger."

(Unusually serious for Siffrin....)

Siffrin: Yeah, I do! Awesome, isn't-

Siffrin: ...

Siffrin: What about it.

"I wasn't thinking anything, Siffrin"

Siffrin: I'm not giving you my dagger. I wouldn't even if i didn't know what you're gonna do with it.

Loop: (Serious as a heart attack, huh...)

"C'mon! It'll help me! You're here to help, right?"

Loop: (Since when does HE care about your well being?...)

Siffrin: It won't help! Starlight, you cant even imagine what you're suggesting!

Siffrin: Let's stop this now. Please.

"*sigh* You're right. Sorry. Let's talk about something else"

"Yeah....sure....let's talk about something else...."

(Siffrin looks at you, slightly squinting.)

(You see the opportunity.)

Siffrin: ...

Siffrin: Okay! How can i help you on this beatiful loop, starli-

(While Siffrin is saying his usual words, you quickly snatch the knife from his hand.)

Siffrin: LOOP, WHAT ARE YOU-

(You suddenly see a vision.)

<Short loopback>

(...)

Siffrin: [YOU CAN USE MY DAGGER TO LOOP BACK WHENEVER YOU WANT.]

Siffrin: [YOU CAN DO SO BY GOING INTO YOUR POCKETS, AND USING MY DAGGER, IN BATTLE OR ELSEWHERE.]

Siffrin: [DOING SO WILL IMMEDIATELY END A LOOP, ALLOWING YOU TO LOOP BACK WHENEVER YOU PLEASE.]

(Siffrin is trying to catch his breath, still grasping his neck.)

(...)

Siffrin: ...So that's how it feels...

Siffrin:

Siffrin: ...leave. Don't come back until next loop.

(You quickly run away, making sure you don't lose his dagger.)

DO NOT BE AFRAID

this is combining Ovid's Heroides and the Excidium Troie because I can't stop thinking of Hermes telling him not to be afraid. what the fuck!! Ares is wearing the crown that Paris gave him.

I have. thoughts. about Paris. he's almost got this Troilos parallel in my mind, that the event that defines him in detail exists in a lost narrative that we don't have (the Cypria), but everyone else knew. the event that defines Troilos is his death (murdered, butchered by Achilles, the violence of which haunts everything after. Achilles, child killer, you can't escape that!), and the event that defines Paris is the Judgement. what's a lost text but a kind of grave!!

idk I don't think that Paris before the Judgement would recognize himself after bc when you become god touched, it rearranges your guts. you become transformed in the worst way possible! how could you recognize yourself! but I also think that all the Parises after the Judgement would recognize each other because that event is so locked into the trauma of war and the scar it leaves on the land, it's like a scar on the narrative too. it exists like this forever, over and over again, so you exist like that forever too. Troy collects grief and despairs.

Troy as trauma: Reflections on intergenerational transmission and the locus of trauma, Andromache Karanika

and Paris is like. a miserable little god/corpse-puppet or something, like a match for the gods to throw onto gasoline.

The Excidium Troie + Ovid's Heroides:

[felis-rach]

Ok sooo Astro boy Phantom of the Opera (kinda) au ✨

SO. Since 03 Tenma pretty much IS the Phantom (and I started shipping the old men real bad) I started cooking this

The story is that Ochan is a medic and Tenma a cientist. They're old friends, but then Tobio dies (as he does) and Tenma isolates himself and makes a pact (with a demon or spirit ig?) to trade half of his soul to bring his son back (which leaves some scars or stuff hence the mask)

The half soul is used to make a new soul for Tobio's body, restored with mechanical prosthetics by his father. But the new soul isn't Tobio. It's a new life, a new person, who just carries his memories. Tenma acts overprotective and possessive of him, hiding them from the world, so the kid eventually runs away and finds Ochanomizu, seeking help. Ochan names him "Astro" since he loves the sky and stars so much and cares for the kid.

Anyway cut to Ochan spending like 80k words knocking some sense on his problematic boyfriend's head, Tenma ruins everything then learns to value his son's life etc etc and I hope they all become a happy family the end
